Today it was: Hey country number 31, hello Monaco. I wasn't expecting much, but I was very pleasantly surprised and I really liked it. The land of the rich has its own vibe. And it's a really nice place to walk. If you're on the French Riviera, you should definitely stop by. Happy Easter, everyone!🇲🇨🐰

Since the new holiday apartment was not ready until 4 p.m., we drove straight down into the city. Wow, the underground car park we headed for was a bit more challenging, but our rental car managed to get around all corners and just fit into a small parking space.

September 10, 2024,Monaco, badend in het licht, schonk ons meer dan eens een schitterend zicht

On the coast, a small principality,
Where mountains kiss the azure blue fine,
There lies Monaco, proud and free,
A jewel that shines by the sea so close.

The palace built high on the rock,
Tells stories of princes, glory and gold.
The narrow streets, centuries old,
Keep secrets, softly unfolded.
